If you have gathered considerable experience in the Spaghetti Western Database and you are also a Tarantino fan, or you would like to work with Tarantino material, think about helping out at the Tarantino Archives wiki as well

Well i havent seen grindhouse,but i think tarintino’s hit and miss. kill bill is one of the best movies in yrs,pulp fiction is great the others are average imo.i also think rodriquez is the same ,but sin city blew me away.

Directed by Takashi Miike. With Hideaki Itô, Kôichi Satô, Quentin Tarantino, Masanobu Andô. A nameless gunfighter arrives in a town ripped apart by rival gangs and, though courted by both to join, chooses his own path.

[quote=“BillCarson, post:9, topic:613”]Speaking of Tarantino…I’m very curious about how the new Japanese western film that he’s starring in will come out.

Takashi Miike made some excellent movies, so I have faith in this. But… Tarantino as Ringo? Hahahaha. That guy should stick to directing. He’s gotta be one of the worst actors I’ve ever seen. Not as bad as Jack Black, but still…

Exploitation? Not even close.
Most exploitation films (which is pretty broad… think extreme Horror/crime/sex/race movies and you’d get the idea), that eventually were shown at Grindhouse theatres, were made on shoestring budgets and usually with a cast of complete nobodies.
Tarantino and Rodriguez made each of their films for several million dollars using top stars of today.
Kinda defeats the purpose don’t it?

The best thing about the movie were the fake trailers.
Rodriguez’s PLANET TERROR was fun but brought nothing new to the table and Tarantino’s movie was awful.
The dialogue felt like it was somebody trying to be Tarantino and not QT himself.
The car chase was good but nothing to write home about.

I’m thinking that the majority of people who don’t like it aren’t true QT fans.[/quote][quote=“Bad Lieutenant, post:4, topic:613”]Or perhaps the majority of the people who don’t like it have seen REAL grindhouse movies.

it’s still great, and it’s an entertaining flick. you’d be lying if you told me you didn’t have fun watching it. they didn’t set out to make the greatest film ever, they wanted to bring some drive-in spirit back and let people have fun at the movies, where you’re regularly being tortured by mainstream hollywood horseshit
